On the UR broadcast, what Jack is saying is what Mitch said...He is usually on top of that stuff.

The SCIAC championship game is played at the site of the team with the best record (h2h result in case there's a tie).

So correct me if I'm wrong but SCIAC championship game will be the winner of Redlands/Pomona vs Chapman (unless they lose to LaVerne).

Correct? Any idea how they decide where the game is played?

That is correct, but I have no idea where it will be played. I am guessing if Redlands wins this weekend they will host Chapman, but if Pomona wins, they will travel to Chapman.

This is correct.

SCIAC predictions for the weekend:
It should be an interesting match up between Pomona and Redlands. Pomona is always a tough place to play. Redlands defense against the new look run first/QB Sagehens. This game is for all the marbles to go to the championship so expect a few trick plays from Pomona and a pumped up defense for Redlands. I expect a low scoring game with Pomona coming away with the W due to a late turnover. Pomona wins by a fg.
CMS vs CLU should be a dominant performance by the CMS defense. Cal Lu has some decent skill positions/QB but their O-line hasn't been good for the past five years. Edwards has a big game and CMS by three scores.
Chapman vs ULV should be a win for Chapman. Chapman started out slow but they seem to be getting better every week. Chapman wins by three scores.

Redman, the most critical issue is our starting QB broke his leg, we could only score 9 points with him. 10 points may win the game. I would start the sophmore over the senior at QB for UR, given his legs are better. I have PP a 7 point favorite. 10 years ago If you told me PP is a 7 point favorite against the dogs, I would have been put in re hab.
3-3-5 is designed to stop the QB, PP will come up with some creative attacks.

Agree Redlands should go with Jordan Ford at QB. He's more athletic, and needs the experience and development for the future. I would put him under center and go run heavy with power/misdirection and throw off of play action which would allow him to use his running ability as well.

RB, I get what you are saying...However we need to get the ball to our WR too, I think they are more athletic that PP's back line. Maybe it comes off play action and take advantage of some foot speed issues or size. Maybe we see some boot action under center, Ford has the foot speed to create pressure. PP will run 7 and 8 guys up front. I dont think we need to line up on double Tight or power formations and bring more guys into the box. Plus Ford will need to run and put pressure on ends, when the senior is in zone read is not a threat. Dink and dunk keep them spread out.

On defense, our SS are really playing well. They need to have a great game...

Misdirection with fly motion or wing tight formation helps to get the ball in the hands of their athletic receivers which opens up the power game to attack. Add in play action and you can open up a true pass game which is severely limited right now. Redlands offense is struggling right now, so make some structural changes and work to their strengths. The shotgun/spread formation is toothless right now.

Good take RBF, Coach Good is a good man, I think just very busy in both roles.

RFBredux · November 05, 2023, 01:30:07 AM

Swept by the Claremont schools this season. A new low for the once proud football program that resides in Redlands. Karma coming back with some vengeance.

olddog · November 06, 2023, 10:50:22 AM

Agree RBF, very sad days in the Dog Pound ....Long term the only way to compete is new facilities, to challenge CMS, PP, Chapman, and to some extent CLU.

The rising tide of feminization of the world is working against us.

New leadership is needed more than facilities at this point. The team was wholly unprepared this past weekend. Toothless on offense, special teams blunders, undisciplined with costly penalties, and very little emotion or desire from the team for a game with a ton on the line. The defense played better in the second half, but the damage was already done and game mostly was over at halftime.

Old dog, go get Maynard to come out of retirement. Jk old dog, I don't want to hear a rant how you wouldn't be able to get him to unretire because he was pushed out by feminists/communists and this world is too soft for real men to flourish. But seriously, Redlands better get with the times instead of yelling at people to get off their lawn. Time is moving forward, not back. Pomona plays on a pop Warner field and CMS has sand traps in the middle of theirs but they've figured out the landscape. Redlands facilities are good enough to win. Besides all that, Chapman vs Pomona in the inaugural SCIAC championship game, should be a good one.

Oh boy. Old dog gets it right 98%. The times at small schools are totally leftist and females (good or bad) are becoming the focus of these schools. Football is not a top priority to any SCIAC school, as I see it. Sad days in Southern California ahead. I hope that I am wrong.

Red, congrats on your second post...

Redlands better get with the times? what does that mean, new facilities like PP and CMS...or full rides grants that both schools are capable of doing. They are great schools throw in the aid they can offer, its compelling. CMS can recruit nationally can UR, CLU, LV , CU ?
Get off the lawn? I do not rep UR...you know that, right. UR board has made a decisions in regards to sports and mantra , I will let the outcome speak for itself. ...see UR, see CLU..see LV ...see Whittier....see Oxy
